What is Litecoin?

Litecoin (LTC) is often referred to as the "silver" to Bitcoin's "gold." It operates similarly to Bitcoin but differs in several key aspects, including its hashing algorithm (scrypt), a higher coin supply limit of 84 million, and a shorter average block time of 2.5 minutes.

Launched in 2011 by former Google engineer Charlie Lee, Litecoin was designed to enable CPU mining at a time when GPUs had taken over Bitcoin mining. Although scrypt mining was eventually adapted for GPUs and ASICs, Litecoin has largely remained in the top 10 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization.

While Litecoin offers many opportunities for investment and transactions, there are many other cryptocurrencies available that could align more closely with your specific needs.
